EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful bond between Frederick II (1712-86) and his nephew, Frederick William II (1744-97). Engraved by the talented Johann Probst, this masterpiece beautifully captures the essence of their relationship. In this image, we see Frederick II portrayed as a distinguished male figure, exuding authority and wisdom. His tricorn hat adds an air of regality to his presence while his sash proudly displays his coat of arms. Standing beside him is his nephew, who appears angelic in nature with a trumpet in hand. This symbolic representation suggests that he is not only related to greatness but also possesses qualities that make him worthy of admiration. The setting itself is intriguing - a tent serves as their backdrop, hinting at military prowess or perhaps even political strategy. The attention to detail in both figures' attire showcases the artist's skillful craftsmanship. This remarkable piece from Antoine Pesne's collection evokes curiosity about the historical context surrounding these two influential individuals. It invites viewers to ponder upon their roles within society and how they may have shaped history through their actions. As part of a private collection, this engraving offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but still relevant today. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide, reminding us of the enduring power held by both familial connections and individual achievements
